JAMES WILLIAMSON, PRINTER, HIGH STREET.
THE Ancient Records of this Diocese have
hitherto been practically inaccessible,
having been scattered about in at least three
different Registries, viz., those at Ely House
in London, the Consistory Court in Great
St. Mary's Church at Cambridge, and the Palace
and Diocesan Registry at Ely. All these
documents the Bishop has now caused to be
removed to the Palace at Ely, where he has
provided and fitted up a large Muniment Room
in Bishop Alcock's Tower for their reception; at
the same time causing them to be completely
arranged, so as to be available for the research
which their historical importance deserves.
And the present volume is the outcome of
this arrangement.
vi Ely Episcopal Records.
The Bishops of Ely had until recently a
temporal jurisdiction second only in importance
to that of the Bishops of Durham ; and the
consequence is that their Muniment Room
contains, in addition to the ordinary records
of diocesan business, a great mass of ancient
documents relating to this temporal jurisdic-
tion, both civil and criminal, such as Assize
and Plea Rolls, &c., which for other Dioceses
are to be found (if at all) only at the Public
Record Office in London.
The Ecclesiastical Records comprise the
usual contents of a Diocesan Registry, — the
^visitation Books and the Transcripts of
Parish Registers for the old diocese being in
unusually good preservation. Special attention
has been paid to the arrangement of the latter
according to parishes, so that they may be
available to the Clergy for supplying the parts
missing (alas ! too often) in the Parochial
Registers themselves.
The Episcopal Registers commence in
1337, and a rough calendar of their contents
is given in the present volume, as well as a
Preface. vii
careful abstract of the Marriage Dispensations,
the Indulgences (which are especially-interesting
in this series of Registers), and any other
matters likely to be useful for local history.
All the Wills occurring in the Registers have
been transcribed in extenso.
Room has also been found for a portion
of the unusually good series of Marriage
Licences existing here ; and for a Transcript
of the Marriage Register of the Old Chapel at
Ely House, Holborn. In short, the volume
is intended to comprise an Account of the
whole Series of Records, — Ecclesiastical, Civil,
and Criminal, — illustrated by Abstracts and
Transcripts calling attention to the chief
matters of interest occurring throughout them.
In the Appendix an account is given of
various Records and MSS. in the Public
Record Office, the British Museum, and at
Lambeth, relating to the old Diocese of Ely.
I desire to take this opportunity of acknow-
ledging my indebtedness to Mr. WILLIAMSON,
the Publisher, for the accurate and painstaking
viii Ely Episcopal Records.
manner in which he has performed his share
of the work ; but for this, the labour (in any
case not inconsiderable) of seeing through the
press a volume so full of names and dates
would have been very greatly increased.
It need scarcely be added that any praise
which the work, as a whole, may deserve, must
be given to the Bishop. The blame for any
faultiness in its execution is mine alone.

In 1823 there is a Petition for Non-residence from the Rector
of Doddington on account of the dampness and unhealthiness of
the climate, the extreme lowness of the situation, and the consequent
illness of Petitioner's children. The duties are performed by his
curate, who has a yearly stipend of one hundred and fifty pounds
and a house. The gross annual value of the said Rectory exceeds
five thousand pounds.

A 5 SUBSCRIPTION AND ORDINATION BOOKS.

A 5 SUBSCRIPTION AND ORDINATION BOOKS (continued).
Also the names and colleges of persons ordained 1561,
1 563-15 70, 1574-1581, and their subscriptions to the Articles and
Book of Common Prayer, serving as a kind of Index to the
Examinations.
Taking 1560-1 as a specimen, the number of candidates was
68, of whom 2 were respited to the Bishop and 7 rejected, including
a B.A. and Fellow of Queen's College, Cambridge. Several others
were respited, but appear afterwards to have been admitted. In the
later years the proportion of candidates refused seems, from a
cursory examination of the book, to have been much greater.
The " Interrogatoryes ministeryd to all suche as myndethe to
Receyve hollye orders " were as follows : —
1. ffyrst what is his name.
2. The second what age he is of.
3. The Thyrd wher his ajbydinge is.

(These are on a loose sheet of paper in the book.)
1 662- 1 672. Book of Subscriptions of Clergy
under Canon 36.
The Oaths of Supremacy and Allegiance, obedience to the Bishop,
and Residence, and against Simony, are set out at the beginning of
the Book. At the other end are subscriptions 1662-1666 under the
Act of Uniformity — to conform to the Liturgy, that it is not lawful
on any pretence whatever to take arms against the King, and that
the Solemn League and Covenant was an unlawful oath and not
binding.
Then follow subscriptions of Candidates for Orders, 1667-1672.
The following loose paper in this book appears to be an abstract
of the Ordinations between 1662 and 1664 : —

others, 1810.
BISHOP FLEETWOOD'S COMMONPLACE BOOKS.
A Volume of Memoranda of Bishop
Fleetwood. 1714-1723.
In the first he gives an account of his appointment, commencing
"2w6eo> Novemb. y6 i7th 1714. I kissed K. Georges hand for
ye Bprick of Ely, being the First Bp. he made.
Nov. ye 25. I was elected : the Conge d'elire passing through
all the offices, came to 581 i28 o8d. The Register of the Dean and
Chapter of Ely claimed as a Customary Fee, for bringing ye Instrument
up, io1 1 5s ood. I gave it to him, because he was said to be a poor
and honest man, but I knew it was an Imposition, it being
impossible for io Guineas to be a Fee, when Guineas were not
coined till about 1662. I doubt not but it had been paid by one
or two of my Prsedecess™, but I am sorry I paid it, to confirm a
piece of vain Generosity which, with one or two more Silly Examples
added to mine, will make a Custome, and ye Chapter-Register will
hereafter have the Confidence to claim it as his Due. I could with
more satisfaction (to Shew it was not ye money I regarded) have
thrown it into the River.
On Dec. ye 19th I did Homage, ye Fees of wcL came to
106. io. 04, and would have been 5U more, had there been any
Groom of the Stole.
For 3 seals, two silver, one manual, one of steel, 10:00:0
(Altogether ^£42 7 6 2).
" The names of such as I offered to ye Ld Chancellour Cowper,
to be Justices of ye Peace for the Isle of Ely : ye Commission passed
Jan. ye 7th 1714, and cost me ^n oos ood."
Ely Episcopal Records. n
A 6 BISHOP FLEETWOOD'S COMMONPLACE BOOKS (contd.)
(After giving the names, the Bishop goes on) : — " These eight
and ten more ye Ld Chancellr Harcourt had put into Comission,
to serve some purpose, without acquainting ye Bp. with it, contrary
to immemorial custome, and turnd 4 of ye old ones out. I left out
y6 Ten to vindicate y6 Bps. Privilege, and to shew some Resentment
for ye 111 usage of my Predecessor, and left y6 other 8 in Comission,
because ye good of ye Isle required it, as I was told."
Memd. I have reduced, for ye time to come, ye Sessions
Dinners to 031 io8 ood: and ye Stewards Dinners (Leet, Homage,
and 2 Jurys) to o5u 00:00: with firme Resolution never to exceed
one Shilling, as also the Dinner for ye Judge to xxv^, that y6
certain charge may be known.

This was in 1541.
Ye Rentale is in 1542, 2oi8u 13" 4d.
Those Estates wch are marked A were all taken by Q. Eliz. in
1561 in exchange for y6 Pension of ^135 7 3^ per ann. Those
Estates w°h are marked B were exchanged by Bp. Heton with Q.
Eliz. June 10, 1600, for which she settled on y° Bprick Estates to
y6 value of ^£1144 19 7^ per ann. She took also Impey Hall,
Essex. All w°h came to ^1132 3 9^, i.e. were then valued at that
Rate, but worth much more."
The following List of the old Registers extant in Bishop
Fleetwood's time, taken from the same volume, is useful, as showing
what are now missing, viz., Heton's Register and the Liber Niger.
" In ye Registers Office at Cambridge are —
(Sim. Montacute from 1337 to 1344} . , ,
JTho. de Insula from 1345 to 1356 J "
Arundell from 1374 to 1388.
Fordham from 1388 to ....
Bourchier from 1443 to J453-
Wm Gray from 1454 to 1476.
West from 1515 to 1520.
Goodrich from 1534 to 1541.
Another seeming to be Goodrich's.
Bp. Coxes — continued a few years after his Death : and some
few things of Bishop Andrewes, very slight.
Hetons is at London in ye Bp's. hands, from 1599 to 1609.
Alcock from 1486 to 1500, at London in y° Bp's. Hands.

Pinned inside : — " Mem. Tuesday Feb. 24, 1740. Mr. Wood-
ward perused this Book on acct. of the Bp. of London, &c."
On almost the last page is the following : — " Md. to know Mr.
Chancellor his pleasr for order to be takyn for keepyng playes
dawnsynges and maye gaymes in churches and churche yeardes
upon pretense to advauntage and proffyt the churche by the same."
Archdeacon of Ely's Visitation, 1539.
Contains little besides lists of clergy and churchwardens : and
a few notices of wants of repair of churches, &c.
" This volume furnishes us with a report of the condition of the
"Archdeaconry three years after the suppression of the smaller
" Religious Houses and during the year when the Act of the Six
" Articles was passed. Thomas Thirlby was at this time Archdeacon
" of Ely, the same who afterwards became successively Bishop of
"Westminster, Norwich, and Ely. The book deserves to be
"examined with much more care and patience than could be
" bestowed upon it in the time at my disposal." [Hist. MSS. Comm.
Report.]
Visitation Book of Bishop Thirlby, 1549-
1552, and of Bishop Cox, 1561.
Contains the Comperta, and some very curious cases of public
penance, &c.
" We have here a minute account of the condition of the Parish
" Churches throughout the Diocese and a curious body of evidence
" regarding the attitude of the people in this part of England three
"years after the death of Queen Mary, which obviously possess
' something more than a merely antiquarian interest. From these
' returns it is clear that the enactments for defacing the churches,
' and even those for enforcing uniformity of ritual had not been
' attended to generally nor generally carried into effect. There had
' been a widespread reluctance to destroy the Holy Water stoups
' in the church porches, and to daub over the walls of the churches

'with whitewash. The frescoes in many instances are reported as
' still remaining intact. There was a great deficiency of Anglican
' service books ; the homilies are so frequently noticed as not to be
' found, that it would appear they were held in dislike. In many
' churches there was not even a Bible. There are frequent com-
' plaints that no Parish Register Book had been provided. In
' many Parishes there was no preaching and nothing in its place.
' At Stanton St. Michael's there was no pulpit ; at Orwell we read
' ' the Crucifixorium remaineth in statu quo prius ' ; at St. Botolph's
' Church, Cambridge, there was not even a chalice. Such a picture
' of the condition of an English Diocese at this period I have not
' met with elsewhere, and a much more extended and careful examin-
' ation of these Comperta than I could afford to give to them could
'hardly fail to repay a competent student." [Hist. MSS. Comm.
Report.]
Visitatio Generalis tarn Clericorum quam
Laicorum, et detectiones inde facta, 1564-5.
" It contains the usual complete lists of clergy, schoolmasters,
"churchwardens, and other officials of every Parish, with the
'Presentments and Comperta arranged according to the several
' Deaneries. The impression left upon me by a rapid comparison
'of this Book with the Visitation of 1561, was that the defacement
' of the Parish Churches recommended in the earlier volume had
'been generally carried out in the interval, but that the moral
'condition of the people had by no means improved." [Hist.
MSS. Comm. Report.]

" period of more than a year, was carried on in St. Mary's Church,
" in Cambridge, on successive Mondays from week to week. An
"entry of the iyth July 1609 notes that Bishop Heton died at
"Mildenhall, and apparently suddenly, in adibus Mag* Jacobi
" Weston Ar., a fact which has not I think been mentioned else-

'where. At this point the visitation is interrupted and is not
'resumed till 27th Nov., 1609, when Dr. Gager resumes it as
' Commissary of Bishop Andrewes. Some of the reports in this
' volume may instructively be compared with the comperta of half
' a century earlier, and indicate the change of feeling and habits
' that had come upon the villagers. Thus it appears that the old
'strictness in observance of festivals and saints' days was disap-
'pearing, though the attempt was still made to enforce the
'antiquated customs. At Baburgh Ralph Shirte, gentleman, is
'presented for fetching home a chaldron of coals on St. Luke's
'day; at Barrington, Edward Prior is reported for carting on
' Michaelmas day ; at Duxford, John Willows for doing the like on
'the feast of St Simon and St. Jude, and the same offences are
' presented again and again elsewhere as worthy of censure.
"The presentments for sleeping in Church are frequent, and
'the complaints of brawling and actually fighting during divine
' service are not rare. At Balsham two men are " named upon a
'common fame to be of the Family of Love." At Cottenham,
' Richard Coverley taketh upon him to be a cunning man, being
' neither Physician nor Chirurgeon to him divers
' do resort as to a cunning man or wizard. At Dallingham there
'appear to have been great disturbances in consequence of the
' Churchwardens having apportioned the seats in the Church
' according to their own notion of what was fitting. At St. Edward's,
'Cambridge, Robert Throckmorton, gent, is presented 'for that
' contrary to the canons he doth leave his parish Church of St.
' Edward's to which his house doth belong, and doth go to Benet
' Church to hear divine service.' At Over, Ezra Purkiss, the school
'master, 'not being in any orders at all,' had for some time been
' conducting the service in the Church, preaching twice on Sundays,
'burying the dead and churching women, &c., and to all appear-
( ances might have gone on posing as a clergyman but that ' in
' reading the collects he did in one of them leave out this word
'Bishop and instead thereof did read this wor&pastor or pastors.'
' At Waterbeach Henry Greeley, the parish clerk, had been acting
' nearly in the same way in the absence of the Vicar, who appears
'to have connived at the proceedings. Complaints against the
' clergy are very seldom made, though it would be difficult to say
' what misconduct was not thought sufficient to form the subject of
'presentment at these visitations." [Hist. MSS. Com. Report]

A large Bundle of Papers relating to the

adduced on both sides, &c., 1785-6.
Amongst these is the following letter to Dean Gooch, contain-
ing a curiously circumstantial account, by the Rev. Bearing Jones,
of Navenby, Lincolnshire, of his election as Auditor, about 1750.
"Navenby, 13 Aug. 1785.
" My good and much Honour'd Friend,
" Your favour did not find me till this morning, being missent,
" (as they write upon it,) to Boston.
"You will please to recolect it is near 35 years since the event
' you mention took place ; my memory therefore may be a little
' treacherous, and if I digress into minutiae, or evenfabulce aniles,
' as you desire all particulars, you'll laugh at the old man.
" When the Auditor's place became vacant, I waited upon Dean
' Alhx and those of the Prebendaries with whom I thought I could
' safely take that liberty. I met with much civility from all, but
' none promised me except Mr. Butts and my Father ; the Dean,
' who was the best friend I ever had in my life, told me most
' freely, that his regard for and connexions with Mr. Watkins were

" such that he could by no means refuse him his support. In this
" state matters rested till the meeting of the Body in November,
" and the number were five, — the Dean, Mr. Harvey, Dr. Green,
" Dr. Price, and my Father. The morning they were to meet upon
" Business, my Father told me the vacancy had been mentioned
" the evening before, and he found the Dean was against me, that
" nothing was said in favour of me by anyone, and that Mr. Butts
" was not come ; he therefore advised me to desist proceeding any
" farther. I accordingly went to the Deanery to signify that to the
" Dean as my design, and in the little Court I met Mr. Harvey, who
" asked my Business. I told him. He said he insisted I should
" not desist, that his intention was all along to serve me, that Mr.
" Butts as he promised would no doubt come, and he believed I
"had other friends ; if not I should at all events proceed : and that
" the choice would be in the after-noon. Upon this encouragement
" I returned and told my Father, who acquiesced. However I was
"still uneasy, and waited upon the Dean and told him how things
" stood, and moreover rather than offend him by persisting I would
"resign all pretentions. He very friendly and politely beg*d I
" would not have a moment's care about him \ he should not be
" the least displeased ; not that he thought that I had any chance,
" as he was persuaded that Mr. Butts would not come. In this
" situation I waited till Dinner ( — in those good Days we Dined at
" one o'clock — ) No Butts ! I then in my own mind gave up all
" for lost, and as I was going to the Deanery by invitation to Dine,
" upon the Dean's walk I met Dr. Price, who very good naturedly
"ask'd me how I went on. I told him I did not go on at all, that
" all was over with me ; my Friend Mr. Butts was not come. He
" said, ' why don't you take your Horse and go to him ? I know he
" is at Snailwell.' I replied, ' It is too late ; the election was to be
"in the afternoon.' He laugh'd, and said, 'I shall voat against
" you, but get away directly. I'll take care the Election shall be
" put off till tomorrow morning.' I went immediately and found
" Mr. Butts with a house full of company ; he seem'd much sur-
" prised, but very pleased to see me, and affected totally to have
" forgot the Chapter time. I told him it was not then too late to
" serve me, and I hoped he would, as the Election was not to be
" till the next morning. He assured me he would, and came to
" Ely accordingly. What follows I had from my Father. That the
" Dean, Dr. Green, and Dr. Price voted for Mr. Watkins ; Mr.
" Harvey, Mr. Butts [? and my Father for me]. The choice then
" rested upon the Dean's casting vote, who very kindly said that I
" had behaved through the whole business, with such respect to
" him and modest propriety, that he could not take the advantage

" of the casting vote ; upon which Dr. Green immediately said,
" then he would go over and vote for me, which he accordingly
" did, and I was appointed your unworthy Auditor.
" I write this rather in hast to save the Post. I imagine you
" may have heard I've lost my eldest daughter since I had the
"pleasure of seeing you, and am in great fears for my son. My

NOTE AS TO BOLLS OP MANOR OF CHATTERIS.— On the fly-leaf of an Act for Inclosing
Lands in the Parish of Chatteris, 1809, the following memorandum is written :— A claim was
made for the See under this Act for an Allotment, as the Bishop was
1. Lord of the Hundred of Wichford.
( Chateriz Ramsay.
2. Lord Paramount of the Manors of < Chateriz Nuns.
( Benet College,
all of which did suit and service at his Palace Court and Hundred Court.
3. As Lord of the Manor of Ely Barton.
In Bishop Wren's Account of the Muniments of the See many Ancient Rolls or Entries are
stated which might tend to establish the two first of these claims ; but upon examination of
the Muniment Rooms all the Rolls, &c., containing such entries appeared to be lost, except
one Roll of the Court Leet of Chateriz of ye 8th Rich. 2d.
All claim in respect of Ely Barton was considered to be satisfied by the Allotment made
to Bishop Wren by the Commissioners under the Act of 15 Car. 2. T. DAMPIER.
Oct. 10th, 1810.

D | BISHOP YORKE'S ACCOUNTS.
20 bundles of Tradesmen's Bills and
Receipts of all kinds : —
1768-1780 1789-91 1796-7 1803-4 1803-1807
1781-1785 (4) 1792-3 1796-8 1805 Diversyears
1783 1794-5 1790-1800 1800-1807 (4 bundles)
The first bundle includes many receipts of the Bishop's when
he was Dean of Lincoln, Bishop of Gloucester, and Bishop of
St. David's ; also some accounts of the Bishop of Peterborough.
A solicitor's bill in 1778 has an item for conducting a treaty
with Messrs. Wray and Evans for the renewal of the Lease of
Ashborne and Wirksworth.
There are also several bills and estimates for alterations in the
Deanery at Lincoln by John Hayward and Thomas Lumby in 1778 ;
especially an octangular bay window, and for walling up a window
on the north side of the drawing-room, and one on the north side
of the dining-room.
In 1779 the Bishop paid £2 125. 6d. "for a grizzle peruke";
and Francis Winter's bill "for dressing the Honorable and Right
Reverend the Lord Bp. of Ely's Perukes from March ioth to July
6th 1790, 251 at 2d each Peruke," was £2 is. rod.
D 2, 3, 4 CONSISTORY COURT BOOKS.
Registrum primum causarum Consistorii
Eliensis de tempore domini Thome de Arundell
Episcopi Eliensis. 1378-1381.
Mr. Cole says about this volume : —
" Registrum Consistoriale Eliense. The following curious book
was lent to me Oct. 27, 1768, by the Rev. Mr. Sam. Peck, Fellow
of Trinity College in Cambridge, Vicar of Trumpington and late
Deputy Chancellor of the Diocese of Ely under Dr. Wharton Peck,
who resides wholly at Norwich. Mr. Peck bought it at a grocer's
in Cambridge for waste paper at the pound weight together with 40
or 50 other books all belonging to the Registrary of Ely which were
so sold by Mr. Day the Town Clerk of Cambridge, executor to the
late Mr. Higgins, who shot himself about 2 years ago, and was
Deputy Registrar to Chas. Green Esqr. of Hemingford. It is a
very large 4°, containing 162 double pages, wrote in a small neat
hand on vellum by one Foxton."
8o Ely Episcopal Records.
D 2, 3, 4 CONSISTORY COURT BOOKS (continued),
The book commences : — " Acta coram nobis Roberto Roos

venerabilis in Xpo patris et dni dni Thome de Arundell dei gratia
Electi Elien' et confirmati Offic' et commissario ad infrascripta
sufficienter deputato in domo capitulari Monasterii Elien'," &c.
Pinned to the cover is the following : — " Mem. Tuesday Feb.
24, 1 740. Mr. Woodward perused this Book, on ace* of the Bp.
of London &c. Nothing worth searching for in this book in the
opinion of S. Peck."
Mr. Cole appears to have been of a different opinion, and to
have made copious extracts from the book.
" As might be expected the contents of the volume for the most
'part deal with matters of routine; occasionally, however, docu-
' ments of great interest occur, and notably so among the letters
' which refer to the elections of Proctors to serve in the ecclesias-
' tical assemblies, and the frequent correspondence concerning the
' Diocesan Synods held twice a year in the Diocese. So little is
' known of the authority, influence, or procedure in these meetings
' that any fresh information that may be afforded concerning them
'would be a gain." (Hist. MSS. Comm. Report.)

Thus in a suit as to the tithes of Okeington in 1595 one of the
witnesses is Henry Crosbye of Okeington yeoman aged 77, having
dwelt there 38 years, and before that at Madinglye for 19 years, and
before that at Cotenham where he was born.
And again, in a suit as to the will of Thos. Willowes in 1596,
one of the witnesses is Oliver Frohocke of Milton gent, aged 40 ;
has lived there 1 2 years, and before that at Staplin co. Middlesex
for 6 years ; born at Claveringe co. Essex.
And one other instance. In a suit for subtraction of Synodals
&c. of Chesterton Vicarage, in 1594, John Frickley of Cambridge
notary public and scholar of the University of Cambridge ; has lived
there 23 years; born at South Kirkby co. York; aged 40; "liberae

BAILIFFS' ROLLS, RENTALS AND ACCOUNTS.*
• " Hardly less numerous than the Court Rolls are the Bailiffs' accounts of the Episcopal
" Estates from the beginning of the 14th century downwards. Among these, as falling under the
•' same class, may be included the Bent Rolls, one or two manorial extents, balance sheets of
" the surveyors of the great dykes and drains and other stray papers more or less connected with
" the finances and revenues of the Bishop. One roll of the custos fostatorum for the 1st year of
" Henry V. enters rather minutely into details regarding the system of drainage then existing
" and which had been in operation for centuries before. A Rent Roll of 4 H. IV. gives us what
" may almost be called a Commercial Directory for the town of Wisbech for this year, and i»
" would be interesting to compare this with another and equally elaborate Halimote Roll of
" the 7th H. VIII., which again furnishes us with a list of all the householders and their several
" occupations just a century after the date of the earlier document. The Bailiffs' accounts,
" however, would prove on examination to be the richest mine of information on almost all
" matters that concern our social history and the habits of life of the people. Thus we may
" note that the interchange of letters from time to time was much more frequent than we should
"have expected to find. In the 20th year of Edward III. a busy correspondence was kept up
" between the Bailiff of Wisbech and Edmund de Qonville, the first founder of Catus College.
" Gonville was at this time Commissioner of Marshlands, in the Isle of Ely, but resided, as
" appears from this account, at Rnshworth, in Norfolk, where he had founded and endowed a
" College of priests in 1342. The letters from Wisbech to Rnshworth are always charged for
" in terms of the day's labour for which the manorial tenants were liable, six opera for the
" journey to and fro, three opera where no answer seems to have been returned. From another
" account two years later we get the money equivalent for these charges by finding the writer's
" day's work set down as standing for a halfpenny. In this latter account, top, we find that in
" the Barton of Wisbech a practice prevailed of selling the feudal services " in gross " year by
" year ; and in this year 1348 (i.e., the year before the Black Death) the whole amount received
" under this head was SI. lit. 2J«(. Seventy-five years later (lo H. IV.) the sale of services in
" the same manor brought in 101. Illustrations of the severity of the plague in Cambridgeshire
" are frequently to be met with. At Barton we learn that no less than 352 acres escheated to
" the lord, and that 62 acres remained unlet, causa pettilentice. Prom the frequent mention of
" boats and boat hire it would seem that the ordinary " sewers" through the fens were used
'• as canals and were the highways from place to place, the saturated fen land not being f ur-
" nished with roads along which much traffic could be carried on. The sea evidently came
" much nearer to the town of Wisbech in the 14th century than it does now ; the smaller eetacea
" seem frequently to have been cast ashore in the shallows of the Wash ; when canght they
" were salted and packed in barrels to be consumed as food, and the capture of a grampus,
"porpoise, or even"nnius piscis vocati sele" was welcomed as cheerfully as the occasional
"netting of a sturgeon. These Bailiffs' accounts are of great length, the rolls frequently
" extend to six or seven feet, and are usually written on both sides of the vellum. The series is
" so large that they could not but prove a very valuable apparatus for a student desiring to
"pursue researches into the daily habits, means of livelihood, and devices for getting a
" precarious sustenance out of the land in a district which, in these early times, must have been
" very uninviting to any but such as had been born and bred on the soil they were attached
" to." (Hist. MSS. Comm. Report.)

J This Roll, which is written in a fifteenth century hand, is headed "Iste rotnlus docet
de Redd' assiso domini E'pi Eliens' colligendo de liberis hominibus in villa de Ely et factus fuit
per manus Michaelis Payn clerici in anno Regni Regis Edwardi tercii a conquestu nono et
pontificatus domini Hugonis Balsham E'pi Ellens' xxi."
Now, Hugh Balsham was Bishop from 1257 to 1286, so that Edward 3 is clearly an error.
Some one has written Henry above Edward in a modern hand, but the true date would seem
to be about 8 or 9 Ed. 1.
The Roll was found amongst the Assize Rolls, being endorsed in a modern hand " Assizes,"
probably because the word " Assiso " occurs in the heading

" Most of the houses and shops in Holborn and Fleet Street had gardens attached to them
" but the Bishop's own garden appears to have been let about the beginning of the reign of
" Richard II., and together with the vineyard and some pasture land adjoining brought in a
" rent of 60*. a year, a considerable rent for a yearly tenant to pay at this time. It is well
" known, as the late Mr. Riley pointed out eighteen years ago (Hist. MSS. 1st Report, App.,
" p. 89), that the notices we get of English Horticulture in the middle ages are not often to be
" met with. I was therefore very glad to find among these Holborn rolls a stray gardener's
"account for the last eight months of the Episcopate of Bp. John Barnet, i.e., from Michaelmas
" 1372 to 7 June 1373, when the Bp. died. At this time the Bishop's gardener was one Adam
" Vynor, who calls himself ' Ortolanus d'ni Episcopi.' Among the receipts are to be found
"amounts from the sale of onions, garlic, lekes, parseley, hyssop, savoury [Winter's Talel.-IV.],
" peas and beans? [de/abis ttsiliquis], and cabbages [olera],
" 69*. \\d. is charged for men and women digging in the vineyard ' ac etiam pro mails
" herbis in cnrtilagio purgandis et eitrahendis," and a payment of 'As. lOd. is entered for tithes
" paid to the Rector of St. Andrew's, Holborn, ' pro decima pasture magni gardini.' '' (Hist.
MSS. Comm. Report.)

ELY CATHEDRAL.
1796. Mr. James Wyatt's Report on the
State of Ely Cathedral, and Estimates for its
Restoration.
The Report pays great attention to an ivy tree in the Deanery
garden as the cause of much mischief. Also to the clock, for which
he recommends dials to be placed in the west, north, and south
sides of the West Tower, in the tier of windows immediately above
the roof of the nave ; and that for the five bells then in the tower
one should be substituted which " might serve for the clock and
every other purpose of the church either by tolling it or striking it
with a hammer or clapper by a cord brought down within the
present lumber room." . ..." If the bell were placed lower
the tower must be closed where an octagon opening ought to be
left, and that would shut out from the view below a very beautiful
part of the Saxon Tower, rich with columns and arches," &c. Mr.
Wyatt also recommends the Organ Loft to be removed " down to
the great legs of the Lanthorn," and thinks the lead of the roof
would fetch about ^3,000, and the roof itself might be repaired
for .£1,200 or .£1,500.

E | PLEA ROLLS AND GAOL DELIVERY ROLLS.
These are the Rolls of the proceedings in the civil and
criminal business at the Assizes for the Isle of Ely, which were held
at Ely and Wisbech alternately.
The Plea Rolls include the proceedings in all actions tried at
the Assizes, and generally the same classes of matters as are found
in the Plea Rolls of the Courts at Westminster, as well as Fines or
Final Concords on the transfer of land, and some other matters
which occupy separate Rolls in the Westminster Courts.
The Gaol Delivery Rolls include the proceedings in the criminal
business of the Assizes.
There are separate Calendars or Docket Books of some, but
only a few of the Rolls. These will be found mentioned in their
place.
The following account of the trial of a witch is taken at random
from one of these Rolls — that of 1647 : —
" The Information of Gillion Salter of Stretham taken upon
oth before Thos. Castell Esqr. the soth day of May 1647.
" Whoe saith that abort 7 yeares since that hir daughter Marie
Salter the elder and Marie Salter the yonger daughter to Tho. Salter
weare much tormented and evell handled in there bodyes Marie
Salter being taken lame and had great tormenting fittes and Marie
the daughter of the said Marie was so grevusly handled that when
hir fitt came upon hir this Informant had much adoe to hold the
said Marie in hir armes shee being but an yeare and a quarter old
and that in the extremitie of the said Marie's ffitt was so violent
upon hir that the mouth of the said child would be drawen to the
eare in such a fearefull manner that it did affright the beholders
to see and this miserie the said Marie did lie in for the space of a
quarter of a yeare and so died wch this Inform* doth verilie beleave
was the act of Dorothy Ellis.
GILLION X SALTER

E | PLEA ROLLS AND GAOL DELIVERY ROLLS (continued}.
" The Information of Alice Wade the wife of Wm. Wade of
Stretham taken upon oth before Tho. Castell Esqr. the 3oth of
May 1647.
" Whoe saith that' shee being in the shope of Mihill Malen
having hir child in hir Armes there came into the sd. shope Dorethy
Ellis for halpeniworth of salt the said Dorethy laying the hand upon
the child's cheeke mumled certaine words to hir selfe and presently
after the departure of the said Dorethy Ellis had on of her child's
eye fell a running and when this Inform* came home and about
ten of the clocke in the night her child fell shreekinge out and
would not sucke w*h that this Inform* rose and did light a candell
and looke upon hir child and did fynd that the side that Dorethy
Ellis toucht all swelld and on of her child eyes out wch act this
Informan* conceaveth was done by Dorethy Ellis.

" The examination of Dorithy Ellis taken before Tho. Castell
Esqr. the 3oth day of May 1647.
" Whoe saith that about thirtie yeares since shee being much
troubled in her minde there appeared unto hir the Devell in the
liknes of a great catt and speak unto this ex* and demanded of hir hir
blood wch she gave hime after which the spirit in the liknes of a
catt suck upon the body of this ex* and the first thing that this
ex* commanded her spirit to doe was to goe and be witch 4 of the
cattell of Tho. Hitch all whch cattell presently died and further this
ex* confesseth that she sent hir catt spirit to bewitch and take
away the life of Marie the daughter of Tho. Salter of Stretham
which spirit forthwith kild the child of the said Marie and also this
ex* confesseth she commanded hir spirit to lame the mother of the
said child old Marie Salter which was done accordingly and that
she commanded hir spirit to goe and be witch and lame John
Gotobed because he cald this ex* old witch and flung stones att this
ex* all w011 command was performed by hir spirit and the said
Gotobed lamed. DORETHY X ELLIS
hir marke."
A certain Matthew Ellis, of Stretham, seemed also to be in
trouble at the same Assizes, for being concerned in stealing corn
from Wm. Townson, senr., yeoman.
At the same Assizes several other persons (Adam Sabie, of
Haddenham, Tho. Pie, of Ely, &c.) were also charged with witch-
craft, some of whom confessed various extraordinary things, but one,
Robert Ellis, of Stretham (probably a relative of Dorothy) " saith
that he would not confess hime selfe to be a witch though they
puld hime a peeces wth wild horses. ROBT V ELLIS
his marke."

Religious prosecutions too were frequent.
" Thos. Dawlling of Wisbech deposes that about the tyme when
Collonell John Lambert escaped out of the Tower of London he
was in company wth John Neale the younger of Wisbech at the
house of one Wm. ffisher when and where the said John Neale did
use some invective and disgraceful words and speeches against the
Minister and Clergy of this Relme of England affirming that ere
long the Annabaptistes would come and preach in our Pulpittes
and that the nation were Annabaptistes, &c., and further that
' Chas. Stuart (meaning the now king's matie) is a bastard and the
seede of a bastard,' &c."
Bets appear to have been made on the King's chance of restor-
ation, for the same John Neale is accused by another witness of
having offered to lay wagers wth this inform* and severall other
persons then present to give them greater sumes of money for
lesser when Charles Stuart (as he then called him) shd be pro-
claimed King of England.
Upon the prosecution of a man for stealing lead and glass from
Ely Cathedral one witness says, "Upon his oth that Doctor Rd
Stone, Wm Tanner, and Wm Gotobed sold this Inform* as much
lead as he pd eight pounds for wh. was the lead that was taken of
the Cath1 Ch. of Ely and wayed ten hunndred and thre quarters."
At the Restoration too there are frequent prosecutions of the
party out of power. Henry Ferrom Esq. appears to have been a
particularly active justice in committing disloyal persons. Francis
Mussen of Wisbech cordwayner is informed against by a customer
who was in his shop and happened to speake of the King's
Coronacon and thereupon the said Mussen did speake these factious
and unreverent words of His Matie to witt " If ever there were a
King crowned in England he shd be crowned with a paire of
Ram's homes," &c.

* The Jail Deliveries and other Sessional Papers make up a huge aggregate of Records
which have chiefly to do with the crime and litigation of the county of Cambridge down to
recent times. In so large a mass of documents it would be very rash to hazard a guess at what
may not be foujid,but I was surprised and disappointed to come upon no notice concerned with
the doings or sufferings of the Recusant gentry and K. Catholic Priests who were confined in
the castle of Wisbech during the latter half of Queen Elizabeth's reign. It is difficult to believe
that a more careful search into this collection of muniments would fail to bring out some fresh
light upon the very interesting subject of the treatment which the Recusants received and the
severity of their long imprisonment. In the next century again, during the interregnum, it is
noticeable that the sessions continued to be held with monotonous regularity, but very soon
after the Restoration at the Sessions held in Ely 18 April 1661 we meet with indications that
the reinstating of Bishop Wren into his bishopric and his return to his diocese was speedily
followed by a vigorous attempt to revive the old church discipline, and the old strictness which
had proved so disastrous twenty years before ; and accordingly among the presentments of the
Grand Jury, 15 men of Ely are presented " for not coming to the Parish Church," and another —
Simon Goodman of March—" for suffering his son and other boys to play in his outhouse upon
the Sabbath day and in divine service time." (Hist. MSS. Comm. Report.)

F 5 PRECEDENT AND MISCELLANEOUS BOOKS (continued}.
"A Formulary belonging to the Church of
York, 1 5th century."
" It contains a large number of forms of citations, monitions,
sentences, &c., among which the following deserve notice : —
i. A form of absolution for celebrating a clandestine marriage.
ii. A form of letter for removing a nun from one house to
another,
iii. A letter from the Canons of St. John's Church, Beverley,
authorising one of their members to beg through the
East Riding for funds to complete the fabric of their
Church,
iv. A commission of the Archbishop of York ' ad inquirendum
de Lollardis et ad procedendum contra eos.'
v. A monition to parishioners to contribute towards the
restoration of their parish Church,
vi. A form of letter of manumission by a Bishop with confirmation
by the Cathedral Chapter.
The beginning of the volume has been somewhat injured by
damp." (Hist. MSS. Comm. Report.)
Also —
" Case of the Will of Edmund Hey of
Wendling, dioc. Norw., 1611."
Proceedings certified by a Notary.
A Book endorsed "Archdeacon's Visitation
Book and other Tracts 1574 to 1624."
This is really a sort of Precedent or Commonplace Book in
which original documents have apparently been bound up to save
the trouble of copying them. One of the pages is in fact endorsed
"Bookes and prsedentes founde in Alson's (?) Box Julij 29, 1640."
These precedent books contain much that is curious, and from
the practice just mentioned of binding up original documents in
them, are a kind of general receptacle for many things one would
scarcely expect to find in such a place. For instance, in a large
leather-bound volume, now lettered A, at p. 256 is an original
appointment of Francis Hobson alderman of Chichester, to be
Captain of a Company of Foot — signed " Northumberland, His
Majesty's Lieutenant for the County of Sussex."
128 Ely Episcopal Records.
F 5 PRECEDENT AND MISCELLANEOUS BOOKS (continued}.
There are two volumes endorsed " Dr. Legge's Commonplace
Books," and on the pages following that just quoted from Book A
are some lengthy proceedings dated 1587 (under a complaint by
Mr. Everard Digbye against Dr. Whitacre Master of St. John's
College Cambridge " concernynge his late deprivacion "), which
commence with a commission from Jo. Cantuar: and W. Burghley,
"to or verie Loveinge ffriendes Doctor Legge, Vicechauncellor of
the University e of Camebridge, Doctr Pearne and Dr Bell." At
p. 118 are the Articles on a Metropolitical Visitation of the
Cathedral by the Archbishop. To take another entry at random
(p. 348) as to a lease of Haddenham : — " To my remembraunce
theis were the wordes that Mr Goldwell spake before my Lo. Cheif
Justice in the cause of Mr Archdeacon of Elye and Mr Arkinstall
viz., ' I was wth Buyshop Coxe late Buyshop of Elye, in his Gallorie

The following, giving an account of a rather adventurous career,
will serve as a specimen of this class of documents : —
Examinacion of John ffloyde of Conaway in Carnarvansheire in

theruppon procured one Wrattam servant to Wm Wattes of Ely
potter to sett him over the river unto the houltes where uppon

The following is another specimen : —

Harlin co. Norf. taken at Wisbech says she was married to Thomas
Fairfacts at Rising in Norfolk a week after Midsummer 12 months

*Q I BISHOPS' REGISTERS.
The following is Dr. Jessopp's Report on these Registers to the
Hist. MSS. Commissioners : —
"The Episcopal Registers begin with that of Bp. Simon
Montacute (1337-1345). The latest that I found was that of
Bishop Yorke (1781-1808). The series is far from complete, and
the registers of Bp. Simon Langham and Bp. John Burnet, which
covered the years from 1362 to 1374, were already missing when
Bishop Wren went through the whole collection shortly after his
translation to Ely from Norwich in 1638.
"Unlike the Institution Books of the Diocese of Norwich,
which contain very little but the names of the clergy presented to a
benefice, and the date of their institution, the Registers of Ely, at
least down to the middle of the i6th century, present us with a
documentary history of the diocese during the episcopate of the
successive occupants of the see. It seems to have been a tradition
at Ely to make the Registers take the place of the old Chronicle.
If the registers of the Priory of Ely were at once the letter books
of the monastery and journals of the business transacted in the
Chapter House, the Bishop's register was a similar record of all
that was passing in the diocese. The valuable priory register so
ably summarised by the late Mr. Horwood in the 6th Report of
the Hist. MSS. Commission (pp. 289-300), will give the reader a
very good idea of the importance of these episcopal registers,
except only that in the one case we are dealing with the affairs of
a single religious house, and in the other, with the administration
of an important but compact diocese, with no great monastery to
enter into serious disputes with the Bishop of the see and with the
University of Cambridge not yet strong enough or rich enough to
assert herself too loudly. Though the relations between the
University and the Bishop were very close, and could not be other-
wise, my impression is that the early registers will be foand to
contain fewer notices of Cambridge than might have been expected,
and that what there are have already found their way into well-
known sources of information. At the same time it must be con-
fessed that this is only an impression.
* Q is the Register Cupboard in the east wall.
Ely Episcopal Records. 143
Q I BISHOPS' REGISTERS (continued}.
" A minute examination of these registers would be a work of
time, and a detailed report upon their contents would fill a volume.
Whether such a report is called for as yet may be doubted.
" Meanwhile, it may be noted that the non-juring Fellow of St.
John's, Thomas Baker, evidently had access to the episcopal
archives at the beginning of the last century, and that the extracts
he made are to be found in his MS. collections. These have been
utilised by the late Mr. C. H. Cooper, of Cambridge, and by others
who have made researches into the history of the University.
On the whole, they must be confessed to be disappointing.
" It is characteristic of the Ely registers that the lists of ordina-
tions at the end of the volumes contain fuller information than is
usually afforded in such early catalogues, which as a rule give little
more than the names of the ordained. Here, in all cases, the
secular and regular clergy are kept distinct, and sometimes the age
and antecedents of the candidates are added. An analysis of these
lists would enable us not only to form an approximate estimate of
the comparative strength of the parochial and monastic clergy, but
to arrive at some conclusions regarding the number of the various
religious orders in the diocese during the i4th and i5th centuries.
The numbers admitted to holy orders in the early registers are very
startling. The lists of ordinations for 22 years of Bishop Gray's
episcopate (1454-1478) fill 34 closely written folio pages. In the
century before this, i.e., in Bishop Simon de Montacute's time
(1337-1345), ordinations were held much less frequently than in
the time that followed; but on the 24th March, 1340, no less than
249 were ordained, viz., 67 acolytes, 56 sub-deacons, 57 deacons,
and 59 priests. The contrast between this ordination and one held
by Bishop Cox, 19 Oct., 1580, is worthy of notice; on this
occasion there were only 23 candidates, of whom eight were rejected
on examination. The generally received belief that during Queen
Elizabeth's reign the ordination examination was a mere form, and
that admission to the ministry of the Church of England was
easily to be obtained by very incompetent persons, receives no
support from this register as far as the diocese of Ely is concerned.
" The great power and influence of the Mendicant orders again,
even during the latter half of the i4th century, may be inferred from
such significant entries as that in Bp. ArundeFs register, where we
find that on the 7th Feb. 1375 ten Franciscans, five Augustinians,
and seven Carmelite friars, after admission to the priesthood, were
licensed to preach throughout the diocese. All these licensed
preachers appear to have belonged to religious houses at Cambridge.
" The number of Papal Bulls, Royal letters, mandates from the
Archbishop, summonses to attend ecclesiastical assemblies, circular

G I BISHOPS' REGISTERS (continued}.
notices issued by the Bishop and bearing upon the taxation of the
clergy and other instruments of more or less importance, of which
copies are to be found in these volumes, is very large. As in the
register of Bp. Stafford of Exeter [e.dited by Rev. Rev. F. C.
Hingeston Randolph, 8vo., 1886], the Wills not only of clergy but
of laymen are numerous and sometimes of great interest. The
same may be said of the Marriage licenses, and occasional suits
for dissolution or confirmation of marriages on the ground of nullity
pleaded or dispensed.
" The Licenses to beg throughout the diocese (usually styled
Indulgences) for various objects are extremely curious. In one
instance such an indulgence is granted for two years, to enable a
poor man who had been stripped of his all by robbers, to recover
his losses.
" The great activity in Church building and Church restoration
in the i4th century is strikingly illustrated by the notices of no less
than ten Churches having been dedicated in Cambridgeshire by
Thomas de Lisle in the single year 1351-2.
"A mandate addressed by Bp. Thomas Arundel to the
Chancellor and University of Cambridge, requiring them to pray for
peace, the realm being threatened with invasion, dated Downham.
"A breve addressed to Bp. Fordham by Richard II., ordering
that prayers be offered up for Richard, Earl of Arundel and the
fleet under his command now upon the sea, 13 June 1388.
(Walsingham, Hist. Angl. ii. 175.)
"In Bp. Gray's register (1454-1478) there is a long account of
proceedings taken against Robert Spark, John Crudde, and John
Baile, who had been found guilty of heretical pravity. The articles
objected to are —
' i. Images not to be worshipped.
c 2. Pilgrimages not to be made.
' 3. Children not to be baptised.
' 4. Laymen not called upon to fast if they be labouring men.
4 5. Consecration of burial grounds unnecessary.
' 6. At the sacrament of the altar no change in the elements.
' 7. Transubstantiation a fiction of the priesthood.
' 8. Confession to one of their sect profits more than confession
to a priest.
" 9. Mental prayer in the fields is better than the same in a
Church.
" 10. Consent between a man and woman alone makes matri-
mony. The marriage rite invented by the avarice of
priests.
" ii. Extreme unction useless.
Ely Episcopal Records. 145
I BISHOPS' REGISTERS (continued}.
" 12. The Pope is antichrist and the priests are devils incarnate.
" 13. Every man is the Church of God, because he is said to be
' the temple of God.'
" All abjure their heresies.
" With these proceedings it would be instructive to compare the
report of a similar trial for heresy in 1539-1540 in the register of
Bishop Goodrich. This long and minute report is concerned
with the proceedings against William Wolsey and Robert Pygott
of Wisbech, which resulted in the burning of the two men at Ely
on the i6th Oct. 1555. Foxe (Acts and Monuments, vol. vii. 404)
gives a very characteristic account of this business, but he cannot
evidently have seen this report of the trial, and writes from hearsay
evidence only.
"Another entry in Bp. West's register (1515-1534) bearing on
the same subject, shows that Thomas Bilney, who was burnt at
Norwich, 19 Aug. 1531, had been proceeded against for heresy
much earlier than has hitherto been supposed. ' Licentia Mro Th.
Bilney in iure Canon : Baccal ad predicandum populo. Sed revo-
catur quia super hereticam pravitatem convictus est 1523.'
" From such a large field as these registers cover it would be
easy to make a collection of curiosities which should be of service
to the historian. Thus the maintenance of bridges in the middle
ages was assumed to be in some way connected with the offices of
religion. In Bishop Grey's register (1454-1479) we find an illus-
tration of this in a mandate from the Bishop to the Bailiff of
Brandon requiring him, whereas Thomas Passhelaw, lately the
occupant of Hermitagium nostrum super pontem de Brandon, was
dead, to admit John Herryman to be hermit there for his life ' si
bene se gesserit,' the said hermit to keep the buildings of the
hermitage in due repair, i.e., out of the offerings received from
those who should cross the bridge.
"The attitude of Archbp. Bourchier towards Bp. Pecock of
Chichester is well known and that he was translated from Ely to the
primacy in 1454. On the 2ist March 1457 the Archbp. issues a
mandate to Bp. Gray his successor in the see of Ely calling upon
him 'ad inquirendum de libris domini Reginald! Pecock Epi.
Chich.' whether written in Latin or English.
"ii. 3 Jan. 1465-6. — A licence addressed to Thomas Trump-
ington 'Sacrse Pag : Prof: Prsesidenti religionis Minorissarum
monasterii de Denny,' authorising him to celebrate matrimony in
the Convent Church between William Ketterich, junior, and
Marion (Marionam) Hall, domestic servants in the monastery : the
banns to be put up in the parish church of Waterbeach. Denny
was a nunnery of the order of St. Clare.

" hi. Certain injunctions and reformed statutes determined on in
the course of a visitation of the Priory of Ely, May 1466. It would
appear that the house required some reformation and received it.
The report and the injunctions fill five folio pages, and are of great
interest.
"iv. In the register of Bishop John of Fordham (1388-1426)
there is a long mandate of Archbp. Courtenay, ' Contra Choppe-
churchesj dated 5 March 1391. They appear to have been the
clerical agents of the i4th century, who drove a brisk trade by
. negotiating exchanges of benefices. The Primate denounces them
as ' Simonis consortes in crimine Choppechurches vulgariter appellati,'
and their head-quarters were at London ' pro majore parte ut dicitur.'
" v. In Bishop Arundel's register (1374-1388), (fol. 33), is a very
strong letter addressed by the Bishop to his clergy warning them
against receiving or harbouring certain " pseudo maligne mentis
homines infelices" outwardly in sheep's clothing but inwardly
ravening wolves. "Adeo obfuscati quod quidam eorum Archi-
episcopos alii vero Episcopos se falso et mendaciter pretendentes "
who had been itinerating in the diocese of Ely and elsewhere,
obtaining money from the clergy and confirming children at the
Churches. Such rogues were by no means to be received ' etiamsi
episcopi in veritate existant. '
" vi. In this same register (fol. 39^) there is an entry of unusual
interest setting forth that Isabella, Countess of Suffolk, on the 2ist
March 1381 [2] in the presence of Thomas Bishop of Ely, 'missam
tune ibidem solempniter celebrantis,' and of Henry [Despencer],
Bp. of Norwich, assisting, made a solemn vow of chastity before the
High Altar of the Priory Church of Campsey, Suffolk. The form
of the vow is given at length. Jeo Isabelle iadys la femme William
de Ufforde Count de Suffl. vowe a dieu et a nre dame seynte Marie
et a toux seyntz en presence de tres reverentez Piers au dieu Evesqz
de Ely et de Norwigt que ieo doi estre chast dors en auaunt ma
vie duraunte. The Bp. of Ely by authority of the Bp. of Norwich
received the vow and invested the lady with a ring and ' Mantellam
sive clamidem ' in the presence of an immense assembly. Among
the witnesses at the ceremony were the Countess's brother, Thomas
Earl of Warwick, one of the Lords Appellant in 1387, and her two
brothers-in-law, John, 3rd Lord Willoughby de Eresby, and Robert,
3rd Lord Scales, ' ac aliis militibus et armigeris et aliis multitudine
copiosa.' This remarkable ceremony has escaped the notice of
historians so far as I am aware. The sudden death of William
Ufford, Earl of Suffolk [Walsingham, ii. 48], has been assigned
by Dugdale to the isth Dec. 1381 [Baron, ii. 49]. His widow
therefore took the veil just three months after her husband's death."

Bishop Wren's MS.
"A closely written folio in rough calf, arranged in double columns,
in the handwriting of Bishop Wren. This volume possesses a
peculiar and almost pathetic interest. The first 113 pages are
taken up with extracts from the registers of the See of Norwich, of
which Dr. Wren was Bp. for little more than 2 years. During this
short period he seems to have worked with extraordinary industry
at the records to which he had succeeded, going through them page
by page and noting everything that seemed to him worthy of
remark. At the bottom of p. 1 1 3 he has added the following note : —
Quicquid in libro hoc chartaceo infra conscriptum est,
usque ad secundam hanc columnam Paginae 113, per me

meaque manu descriptum hinc ex eorundem perlectione et
perscrutatione a me ipso facta dum Ep118 Norwicensis eram,
a 5 Decembris 1635, ad 24 April 1638.
Ma : Eliensis.
"At p. 114 he begins his extracts from the Ely registers, which
are headed "Ex Archivis Eliensibus." These continue uninter-
ruptedly to fol. 360, at the bottom of which he writes : —
Hoc omne quod a Pag. 114 in istuc Libro Chartaceo

" There is a good Index to the Norwich extracts in Bp. Wren's
own hand, but the Index to the Ely notes has been drawn up by
another. Wren seems to have carefully noticed the occurrence of
any names of Suffragan Bishops acting in either diocese as officials
for the Bishops of the see, and the names of more than one are
given which do not occur in Wharton's list.

" Reading between the lines of Bishop Wren's declaration at the
end of this volume, and bearing in mind that the writer was the
object of a very acrimonious persecution at the hands of the Puritan
faction, who spared no pains in getting up charges against him, it
is less to be wondered at that the muniments of the diocese of Ely
should be as defective as they are than that so many records of
great value should have survived. The see was actually kept vacant
for more than 18 years, from 1581 till 1599, and the removal of
such MSS. as may have been stored in the Bishop's palace in
Holborn to the new residence in Dover Street, which was built in
1772, is not likely to have been carried out without some serious
loss." (Hist. MSS. Comm. Report.)
This volume has been produced and read as evidence in a
Chancery Suit — Pickering v. Bishop of Ely, 1843.
The Rev. J. H. Crosby, Librarian of Ely Cathedral, has gone
carefully through this volume and compiled the following list of

It begins at fo. 9 ; and fo. 1 1 is missing, though the first pages,
instead of the folios, have been re-numbered in a modern hand so
that it appears at first sight to be complete. There is a modern
index of persons and places at the end.
Ely and Bury MS.
A thin folio of 40 leaves of the isth century, containing a
collection of extracts from ancient charters and other documents

invaded.

pages of vellum, containing the proceedings on

My Lord, " Saturday.
I sent This Day, by The Beccles Stage Coach, The Manuscript,
relating to Denny Abby : and directed it, to be left at Your House
in May-Fair, or at Your Ldship's Palace in Ely. It is a very Beau-
tiful MS. ; is an Original ; And was found, in the Archives of my
Great-Grandfather Sr Rob* Naunton, Master of the Court of Wards
and Secretary of State to King James the First. It was taken,
among the rest of his Goods, by the Rebels, in Cromwell's Time ;
and a Few Years ago, I found it, in a Farm House, of one, whose
Ancestor, had been, in the Rebel Army.
If it gives Your Lordship, any Pleasure, it will give me more ;
And I beg your Lordship's Acceptance of it, As a Token of my
Great Regard, for your Lordship ; And to shew you,
How much I am,
Yr. Lordship's
Most obedient, and

Q 2 ADMINISTRATIONS, MARRIAGE LICENCES, &c. (cent.)
At the end of Register VIII. is this letter, addressed to the
Rev. Dr. Walker, at Trinity College, in Cambridge : —
"Norwich, Apr. 4, 1750. Sir, I'm oblig'd to you for yrs on
Monday, but am much concern'd at yc ace* you give of some of y°
Surrogates. The evil of clandestine marriages has been long and
loudly complained of, and imputed in a good measure, and indeed
wth too much reason, to those intrusted with Licences. Some
must be left in ye hands of particular Clergymen, in confidence of
their integrity, and y6 regard they ought to have for their own
character in granting them : for there can't be too much care taken
in an affair of so tender a nature, where ye peace and welfare of
families is so much concerned. These great irregularities will one
day be y° ruin of ye ecclesiastical jurisdiction in this particular
branch.
"As to y6 persons you mention, they appear to have been so
guilty, that I can't think them at all proper to be any longer trusted ;
and therefore beg you'll order Higgins to let them know this,
and to require a return of y6 Licences undispatch'd in their hands,
and to let them have no more. I am sure both you and Mr. Greene
will concur in any method that may put a stop to these scandalous
practices. I did hope we should hear no more from St. Sepulchre's :
if you do, please to let me know it.
" I am, Sr, your most humble Serv*, W. Peck."

Q 3 MISCELLANEOUS REGISTERS (continued).
This book is divided into two parts. The first part from folio i
to fol. 206 is properly intitled, "Liber de Inquisitionibus Maneriorum
Episcopatus Elyensis ; " containing a most accurate and minute
account of all the manors belonging to the Bishopric of Ely, taken
in the 2ist year of the Consecration of Hugh Norwold Bishop of
Ely, who was consecrated Bishop of that See 4 Id. Junii A.D.
1229 (14 Hen. 3), so that this General Survey, or Domesday Book,
was made in the year 1251.
The second part of the book, commencing fol. 209, is written
in a different and much later character, and is properly a Chartulary,
containing a Register of the Charters and Grants of several Kings
and others to the Church of Ely, Final Concords, Proceedings at
Law, &c.
At fol. 228 b, col. 2, is an account of the Knights' Fees held
under the Bishop of Ely. Fol. 229 b, col. 2, contains a valuation
of the Rectories, Vicarages, &c., in the Diocese of Ely. Fol. 231 b,
col. i — Perambulatio de Bundis et Divisis inter Comitatus Cantabr.

NOTES ON THE BISHOP'S TRANSCRIPTS OF PARISH
REGISTERS.
These, as will be seen from the foregoing Inventory, are tolerably
complete from 1599 to 1813 for the old Diocese of Ely, that is to
say, for the County of Cambridge with the exception of Isleham,
which was formerly in the Diocese of Rochester, and Ashley-cum-
Silverley, Burwell, Cheveley, Chippenham, Fordham, Kennet,
Kirtling, Newmarket S. Mary, Snailwell, Soham, Wicken, and
Wood Ditton, which were formerly in the Diocese of Norwich.*
Also there are no Transcripts for Thorney, probably because of the
former peculiar jurisdiction of the Abbey there.
Owing to the changes in the territorial constitution of the
Diocese, it is often difficult for a searcher to ascertain where to
look for the Wills, Transcripts, Terriers, and Institutions before
1837 for the districts now comprised in the Diocese; and the
following table is therefore intended to give an approximate idea
of their present places of deposit.

* The Deputy Registrar at Norwich informs me that the Transcripts for these Parishes (except
during the Bishop of Norwich's Septennial Visitations, when they would be at Norwich) should be
in the Registry of the Archdeacon of Sudbury at Bury St. Edmunds; but the Archdeacon's
Registrar has no knowledge of them.
* Except the places, formerly in the Dioceses of Norwich and Rochester, specified above.
t For the Wills entered in the Bishop's Registers, see page 193, supra.
t There are also a few Wills at Lincoln relating to Beds, and Hunts. The earlier Wills
entered in the Registers of the Bishops of Lincoln have been printed in abstract : Williamson,
Lincoln, 8vo, 1888.
§ There are also some Transcripts for Beds, and Hunts, at Lincoln— principally about 1602-
1610, but in some cases coming down to 1670. They are believed to be duplicates of those returned
to the Archdeacons' Registries at Bedford and Huntingdon.
238 Ely Episcopal Records.
NOTES ON THE BISHOPS' TRANSCRIPTS (continued).
In making the following notes and extracts, the object kept in
view has been to give an idea of the years for which the Transcripts
are to be found, and (except of course in the towns) of the principal
families to be found in each parish ; as well as extracts relating to
the families whose pedigrees are given in the Heralds' Visitations,
and all entries which appeared to be in any way remarkable or to
relate to persons unconnected with the parishes where the entries
occur, and which might therefore otherwise be looked for in vain.
Considerable care has also been taken to note the Clergy who sign
or are otherwise mentioned in the Transcripts, so as to supply to
some extent the place of the lost Institution Registers. The names
given in italics and in brackets are those which appear constantly
in the respective registers. It need scarcely be added that the
examination of so many transcripts was necessarily a somewhat
cursory one, but it has been made as exhaustive as the circumstances
would allow. From 1599 to 1700 is the period as a rule covered
by these notes.
The Extracts from the Transcripts are also, to some extent,
annotated from the Marriage Licence Registers, &c., in order to
show what a vast amount of genealogical information may be
gathered from those sources.

NOTES ON THE OLD BISHOPS' REGISTERS.
A careful Abstract of these Registers, by the Rev. J. H. Crosby,
Minor Canon of Ely, is in course of being printed in the
Ely Diocesan Remembrancer ; but as it will necessarily be some time
before the work is completed, if continued in its present form, the
following rough Notes may be of some present service to the searcher
in the meanwhile.
It is scarcely necessary to say that in addition to what is noted
here (usually called the " Memoranda" of a Bishop's Register), there
are the ordinary formal entries of Institutions, Collations, Elections
to Religious Houses, Ordinations, Letters Dimissory, Licences of
Non-Residence, Royal Writs, and Documents relating to Parliament,
Convocation and Subsidies. Also the Wills given above at page 193,
the Marriage Dispensations at page 224, Admissions of Fellows
to Peterhouse, and Commissions, &c., under the Bishop's Lay
Jurisdiction.

The Inhabitants of this Isle having long endured much Sufferings from a corrupt Admin-

Spirit is joined to the Cabinet Council of our Great Good Lord Doctor Mawson Bishop over
this Isle.
Great (my Lord) by the providence of his God above the Grace of his King our King here

of God that man shall give Honor unto whom Honor is due ; the Light of Nature in us, was it
not improved by a liberal Education, constrains us to honor Doctor Mawson, since our God and
our King have inforced their precepts by their Example.

CORRESPONDENCE, &c., IN H 2 (continued),
Bp. Keene evidently had a talent for details, though in the
same bundle of letters which the following is taken from, he writes
to a correspondent for a repetition of his letter, as he "fears he has
thrown the letter into the fire with his covers " : —
as the Good of his Country in the Exercise of cultivating in his own Breast other the Virtues
which lead to the praise of Man here below— We presume— to the praise of him above of the
Grace of his God also.
These Things premised as Truth makes it expedient They should. How strange ?— yet not
more strange than true. Much evil prevails over the Inhabitants of this Isle. From whence
come they ? Of bis Lordship — Why no. Our Duty, our Knowledge forbid the Thought.
The Prince of this Isle, as our King, has no fault, yet not on the gross Principles of the
Sons of France,
With them— their King is their God ; with us— our King is but Man, subject to like
Frailties with others of mankind ; and as our King, so our prelate, governs his palatinate by a
Council, and They alone are answerable for the Measures of Administration.
Having thus paved the way as of Duty bound to endeavour after restoring to an injured
people their just rights. We must observe that the Duties to onr Neighbour being discharged
the next essential part of Mans Life is to reflect back on himself— Next to a Jealousy of Man-
self is an honest Zeal for Manself. Self Esteem grounded on Just and right is profitable — ia —
expedient for Man.
On first reflection we are a free born People, and the same divine and human Laws which
forbid us Subjects to use Liberty for a Cloak to Licentiousness, do equally forbid our Country-
men in power and Authority to use that power for a Cloak to the Licentiousness of Tyranny
and Oppression.
The Magistracy in this Christian Country are made for the People, and their Glory ought
to result only from a faithful Conduct in Actions of great Extent.
Self Esteem grounded on Justice and right is profitable— is expedient for man.
(My Lord) We are a free born People; we this day are more. We are the Grand Jury of
this Island — and as such are— the Guardians of the Lives and Liberties of onr Country ; and our
Souls Jealousy to acquit faithfully such important Trust is inflamed to the uttermost from
reflecting, that by our Constitution, We are — as willinglv indeed we are too, under an Appeal
to the Almighty God who cannot, who will not be mocked, to acquit this oar office without
respect unto persons.
From hence we are led to lay open— to remonstrate on Grievances too heavy to be born
patiently, silently.
The Loss of our Liberty who are free born — False Imprisonments by the Suppression of
one Assize of the two, which formerly were, and of the Subjects right, still ought to be.
This does alarm na, since no man of sense can presume on Integrity of Life as a Security at
all Events against a Commitment to a Gaol ; nothing more common than the Guiltiness of the
Guilty being transferred, through the Craftiness of the Guilty, on the Head of the Innocent.
We will look no farther than to the Incident which fell out in the parish of Littleport within
these few years. Must we not add yet more ? The truth must and shall be proclaimed, although
it give offence wheresoever it may.
Barbarities under Imprisonment little inferior to the Inquisition abroad did onr Country-
men of the Parish of Whittlesea experience within these few years past.
We therefore with Warmth as with Humility Demand a Gaol Delivery twice in the year.
For that End We urge on your Lordship when in Council assembled to press on others our
prelates Council a speedy redress of those Grievances and a certain Assurance of the same to us
the Grand Jury before Christmas next, and Silence beyond that Time We shall construe to be
a Denial.
We are assured of your feeling for, as your knowledge of, the Constitution of this blessed Land.
We do neither doubt of your Principles, nor your Talents ; but we still doubt of your
Success.
Their Wills be done as unto Themselves alone. But lett those Council of our Prelate
know, that We the Grand Jury are unanimously and stedfastly purposed in January next to
fly for succour to the Guardians above all of the Common Wealth of England.

great Coat of Bath coating and a pair of Boots, and his Lordship
begs they may be made big enough, to admit of a little increase in

at Ely, the onus of repairing which latter lies as it shd. seem upon
the Bp. of Ely as Lord of the Franchise as appears by a Report
made in 1767 to his present Majesty by the then Attorney and
Solicitor General upon a Question then agitated between the Bishop
and the Inhabitants, and so forth. In 1798 one James Thompson

Ely, the property of Mr. Joseph Vipan. He became insane, and
Counsel is asked to advise on the question of the Bp's. liability to
provide keepers &c. Mr. Gwillim's opinion was that the Inhabitants
were liable and not the Bishop ; but the difficulty appears to have
been ultimately solved, for an endorsement states " Thompson
proved no Maniac and was hanged, 1801."
The condition of the prisoners at this time does not seem to
have been a very enviable one. A letter dated Wednesday, 4th

pliments to The Bishopp and informs his Lordship he has just now

A letter from the Archbishop of Canterbury to the Bp. of Ely
on behalf of the French Refugee Clergy in 1793.
To the Right Reverend the Lord Bishop of Ely.
My Lord,
The very respectable Committee of Subscribers, who have
benevolently undertaken to superintend the Distribution of the
Money collected by voluntary Contribution for the Relief of the
French Clergy, Refugees in the British Dominions, finding their
Resources begin to fail, and that the Distress of the unhappy Objects
of their Charity still continues, have humbly supplicated His Majesty
for His Royal Permission to make Collections for their further
Support ; and I do, with great Pleasure, communicate to you His
Majesty's most gracious Letter in Answer to their Petition.
You will therein see how much His Majesty approves this
Charitable Work, by the Readiness with which he gives it His Royal
Countenance and Protection ; and also what Commands he hath
laid upon us, that His Letter be made public; and that the
Ministers in each Parish be required effectually to excite their
Parishioners to a liberal Contribution. I have only to add, that I
have no Doubt of your giving every Support and Encouragement in
your Power to the Promotion of so pious and excellent a Work.
I am, My Lord,
Your affectionate Brother,
J. Cantuar.
Lambeth House, April 24, 1793.
George R.
Most Reverend Father in God, Our Right Trusty and Right
Entirely Beloved Councillor, We greet you well. — Whereas the
Committee of Subscribers for the Relief of the French Clergy,
Refugees in our British Dominions, have by their Petition humbly
represented to Us, that, on the dreadful Persecutions of the French
Clergy, which took place in France in August and September last,
many Thousands of them, Sufferers alone for Conscience Sake, were
driven into Our Dominions without any Means of Livelihood or
Support, and have been wholly maintained and supported for above
Six Months by the voluntary Contributions of the Petitioners, which
have amounted in the Whole to above Twenty-six thousand Pounds.
But the Committee, finding their Resources begin to fail, and that
the Distress of the said French Clergy still continues, humbly
supplicate that We would be graciously pleased to permit them to
make Collections for this Charitable Purpose, in the different Parishes

of this Kingdom ; and that the Ministers in each Parish may be
enjoined to exhort their Parishioners to a liberal Contribution
towards carrying on this Charitable Work, which the Committee
trust will be acceptable in the Sight of that Being who is the common
Father of Mankind — We, taking the Premises into Our Royal Con-
sideration, and being ready to give the best Encouragement and
Countenance to this Work of Christian Charity, are graciously
pleased to condescend to their Request, and do hereby direct you,
that these our Letters be communicated to the several Suffragan
Bishops within your Province, expressly requiring them to take Care
that Publication be made hereof, on such Sunday, and in such
Places within their respective Dioceses, as the said Bishops shall
appoint ; and that, upon this Occasion, the Ministers in each Parish
do effectually excite their Parishioners to a liberal Contribution,
whose Benevolence towards carrying on the said Charitable Work
shall be also collected the Week following at their respective
Dwellings by the Churchwardens or Overseers of the Poor in each
Parish ; and the Ministers of the several Parishes are to cause the
Sums so collected to be paid immediately to our trusty and well-
beloved John Wilmot, Esquire, of Bedford-Row, London, Member
of Parliament for Our City of Coventry, and Chairman of the said
Committee of Subscribers for the Relief of the said French Clergy,
Refugees in Our British Dominions, to be accounted for by him to
the said Committee, and applied to the carrying on and promoting
the above-mentioned Charitable Work. And so We bid you very
heartily farewell. Given at our Court at Saint James's, the Seven-
teenth Day of April, 1793, in the Thirty-third Year of Our Reign.
By His Majesty's Command,
Henry Dundas.
To the Most Reverend Father in God, Our Right Trusty and Right
Entirely Beloved Councillor, John, Lord Archbishop of
Canterbury, Primate of all England, and Metropolitan.
Ely-House, April 29, 1793.
Reverend Brother,
As directed by his Grace the Lord Archbishop of Canterbury, I
communicate to you His Majesty's gracious Letter. It is His
Majesty's Comrnand that you solicit your Parishioners at Church
and at their Houses for Contribution towards the Relief of the
emigrant Clergy of France. Men who have nobly sacrificed every
worldly Comfort for the Testimony of a good Conscience : and have

fled to this generous Country for Protection. It is unnecessary for
me to endeavour to excite your sedulous exertions in a Business of
so interesting a description. Your natural Sensibility for such
continued ond accumulated Affliction, in a Cause so honourable to
the Individuals ; and your acknowledged prompt Obedience to the
Commands of a Sovereign so deservedly beloved; are sufficient
securities for your active efforts to promote a liberal Collection.
With my earnest Prayers for Success in all your Christian
Labours,
I remain, Reverend Brother,
Your faithful and Affectionate Diocesan,
James. Ely.
N.B. — Such Collections as are made in the several Parishes, may
be paid into the Hands of the Rural-Deans of each District, and
remitted by them, agreeably to His Majesty's Letter, to John
Wilmot, Esq.
